On a conference call with reporters on Friday, Wisconsin Democrats announced that they will seek to become a party in the lawsuit that the state Republicans filed on Thursday, in which the GOP claimed that aspects of the recall process targeting Gov. Scott Walker are a violation of Walker’s rights.

“Next week, the Democratic Party of Wisconsin will file a motion to intervene in the spurious and flailing lawsuit in Waukesha by Scott Walker’s dead-end Republican allies trying to forestall the inevitable recall against him,” state party chair Mike Tate announced.

“Let’s call this what it is,” Tate added, “another pathetic attempt by Walker and the Republicans to avoid facing accountability by the people of Wisconsin.”
